I’ve had malwarebytes on several computers for years. It was free at first with beta and I either lost or never got the coupon for long time members. Before purchasing it, I wanted to look for a valid coupon code online.

***EDIT*** Ronald, one of our readers, offered another Malwarebytes coupon code – enter BM6-3S7-665 for 20% off or alternatively try code B3S-6Q1-H54 or Q65-TRJ-G7J to save 15% during checkout (you might want to check the comments for newer user-submitted coupons, some might not be working, depending on the actual website where you place the order).

Malwarebytes Anti-Malware Free/PRO 2013 Updates

The latest version of Anti-Malware Free/PRO has brought in some additional developments:

We’re also happy to report Malwarebytes Anti-Malware works fine with Windows 8 on a new Dell All-In-One we have in the office. If you need more than one computer protected against Internet threats, please remember the voucher codes shared by our generous visitors work on volume licensing too – you can save up to 40% off the regular Malwarebytes Anti-Malware price if you apply the tested coupon codes above against your Cleverbridge checkout.

Editor’s note: Unlikely as it may sound, we had one of the office computers infected with Antivirus 2010

Antivirus 2010 is a rogue anti-spyware program from the same family as Antivirus 2008 and Antivirus 2009. Like its previous incarnations, Antivirus 2010 is advertised via the use of advertisements on the Web pretending to be one of the internet anti-malware scanners. These advertisements pretend to scan your computer and then state that your computer system is infected and that you just ought to download and install Antivirus 2010 to remove these infections. These rogues are also known to become advertised and installed through Trojans that display fake security alerts in your Windows taskbar stating you are infected. As soon as you click on one of these alerts, it will bring you to the download page for Antivirus 2010, or even download and install it without your permission.

Once Antivirus 2010 is installed on your laptop or computer, it’ll be automatically configured to run when you logon to Windows. This is done by adding a startup entry that launches the C:\Windows\System32\wingamma.exe executable. This executable will then launch the AV2010.exe and the fake Windows Security Center. Once running, it’ll scan your pc and list a variety of infections that cannot be removed unless you first pay for the computer software. This infection will also randomly display fake security alerts on your pc stating that you just are infected or have some sort of security risk. In the event you click on these alerts, it is going to prompt you to obtain the software program. These fake alerts, along with a fake Windows Security Center that advertises Antivirus 2010, are applied to further scare you into thinking you’re infected so you pay for the application.

Another new addition to these types of rogues is the creation of a fake Blue Screen of Death. At random intervals, Antivirus 2010 will produce what appears to be a Windows crash, but in reality is just a fake screen. These fake crashes are utilized to further persuade you into purchasing the software program. When you receive this crash, you can merely reboot your pc , or try pressing Alt-Tab or Control-Alt-Delete to get out of it.

– probably just one of the myriad variants of malware posing as fake antivirus software out in the wild. Malwarebytes Anti-malware was able to deal with it without a restart. While it may not be relevant, I could not ignore the fact that SpyBot S&D was running on that computer (with it’s free realtime module active and the most up-to-date list of blocked IPs) and did not prevent the infection (we have no idea how the payload was delivered on our system – no, we don’t browse pr0n sites). So it’s been a nice thing to avail of KnRider’s coupon code for Anti-malware and buy two licenses for this excellent piece of software. Thank you for your contribution!
